Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 255 Yuan Fang Awakens
In the middle of the night, everything in Chongzhou City was quiet.

Sitting in the main hall of the commander's mansion, Di Renjie slowly picked up the tiger-headed flying eagle ring, which symbolized the supreme power of the Turkic Khan, and looked at it for a long time.

The ring shone brightly in the light of the lamp.

Finally, he looked up.

Closing his eyes, the scene from that year reappeared in front of his eyes.

At night, in the Governor's Mansion of Youzhou, Ji Li grabbed Di Renjie's hand: "Lord Di, I will never thank you for your kindness. Here Ji Li swears in the name of my ancestor that I will never be an enemy of China in this life. If you violate this oath Forsaken by God."

As he said that, he reached out and took off the ring and put it in Di Renjie's hand: "Turkic men always talk loudly. This ring is given to your lord. From today onwards, it will be auspicious for anyone in the Turkic country to see your lord."

Di Renjie's eyes were red, and he clasped Ji Li's hands and said emotionally: "Your Majesty, people are old and affectionate. I hope I can see Your Majesty in my lifetime."

Ji Li nodded heavily: "Yes. Yes."

Di Renjie's eye circles were moist, and he heaved a long sigh.

"Uncle, what is this?"

Di Renjie turned around, and Ruyan stood behind him.

Di Renjie smiled: "This is a ring."

Ru Yan smiled and said: "This is the first time I have seen such a strange ring."

Di Renjie smiled, and reached out to pat her on the shoulder: "This is not an ordinary ring. Have you seen it? These are three tiger heads, representing the three most elite tiger masters in Turkic China. On it is a flying eagle over On it, it represents the supremacy of the Turkic Khan."

Ruyan was dumbfounded immediately, and asked in a nasty way: "Well, why is this ring a Turkic thing?"

Di Renjie said with a smile: "Because, this is the ring of Turkic Geely Khan."

Ruyan was taken aback, she raised her head: "Khan, the Turkic emperor?"

Di Renjie nodded: "You can say that."

Ruyan asked curiously: "How could it be in your hands?"

"This was given to you by Ji Li Khan when he was in Youzhou many years ago."

Ruyan turned around, and at some point, Wang Mang stood in front of Di Renjie holding a cup of tea.

While talking, he put the tea in his hand on the desk in front of Di Renjie.

Ruyan asked curiously: "Master Hou, how do you know?"

Di Renjie laughed: "Because, Jing Yang is also Ji Li Khan's good friend."

Ruyan asked in surprise: "Uncle, Lord Hou, how did you make friends with the Turkic emperor?"

Wang Mang said with a smile: "It's a long story, not only my lord and I, brother Yuan Fang is also a good friend of Ji Li!"

Ruyan said with admiration: "Uncle, Lord Hou, you are so amazing, the Turkic emperor gave you all his rings."

Di Renjie laughed: "We are good friends."

Wang Mang smiled: "That's right, thinking back to our days in Youzhou, it seemed like yesterday. In the blink of an eye, I haven't seen Geely Khan for nearly ten years."

Di Renjie sighed: "I don't know if we can see our old friend again."

Suddenly, Ruyan said: "Ah, I understand. The reason why you and Lord Hou were able to enter the Turkic camp smoothly the night before yesterday was because of this ring."

Di Renjie nodded: "Yes, this ring is equivalent to the imperial seal in the hands of the Great Zhou Emperor, representing the prestige of Jili Khan in the Turkic army. Oh, Ruyan, why don't you sleep so late, what's the matter? ?”

Ruyan smiled and said, "Guess."

Di Renjie laughed: "You girl, let my old man guess out of thin air whether he treats me like a god."

Ruyan smiled and said, "I'll just give you a chance, how about you come and guess, Master Hou?"

Wang Mang smiled, and suddenly, he glanced at Ruyan's smiling expression, and suddenly came to his senses.

"Yuan Fang is awake?"

"Brother Yuanfang is awake?"

Wang Mang and Di Renjie said in unison.

Ruyan jumped up all of a sudden: "Uncle, Lord Hou, you are awesome, how did you guess that, yes, he is awake."

Wang Mang laughed: "I can tell by the happy look on your face."

Di Renjie let out a long breath: "Let's go."

Ruyan looked at the backs of Di Renjie and Wang Mang, and murmured, "Is it so obvious?"

……

In the second hall, Li Yuanfang was sitting on the couch with sunken eye sockets and thin cheeks.

Zeng Tai sat by the couch and talked with him.

Qiu Jing and Li Kaigu stood aside, adding a sentence or two from time to time.

Di Renjie and Wang Mang pushed the door open and walked in.

Li Yuanfang's eyes lit up, and he called out, "My lord."

Then, he saw Wang Mang who was following Di Renjie: "Jing Yang!"

Di Renjie rushed to the bed and took his hand: "Yuan Fang, that's great, that's great. You, you..."

As he spoke, hot tears couldn't help rolling down.

Wang Mang stood aside and watched quietly.

Li Yuanfang smiled and said: "My lord, don't be sad, I'm fine. It's just some skin trauma, and it will be fine in a few days."

Di Renjie nodded: "Yuan Fang, I thank you. Without you, this matter is still in chaos."

Li Yuanfang smiled and said: "With the ability of an adult, even without Yuanfang, you will be able to find light in the chaos."

Wang Mang smiled and said, "Brother Yuanfang, I knew you would be fine."

Qiu Jing said: "General Li is really a righteous and brave man. Without him, Kai Gu and I would have died in front of the inn."

Li Kaigu, who was standing on the side, also said: "Brother Yuanfang, I, Li Kaigu, have never admired anyone but you. I really have a hundred respects from the bottom of my heart!"

Li Yuanfang smiled and said: "Okay, brother Kaigu, don't praise me anymore. I feel cold all over!"

Everyone laughed heartily.

Suddenly, Wang Mang took a closer look and saw that Li Yuanfang was introverted at this time, and he couldn't tell that he was a master at all. Wang Mang asked tentatively: "Brother Yuanfang, have you made a breakthrough?"

Li Yuanfang smiled and said, "I know I can't hide it from you."

Di Renjie laughed: "It seems that Yuan Fang is also a blessing in disguise."

Wang Mang murmured: "Could it be that one has to experience life and death to break through to the top?"

Li Yuanfang shook his head: "I don't know, anyway, my governor channel was opened in a daze."

Wang Mang curled his lips enviously: "What a lucky guy!"

Li Yuanfang laughed out loud.

Zeng Tai said: "Teacher, I have already told Yuan Fang what happened in the past few days."

Di Renjie nodded, and said: "Now, the development of the situation is becoming more and more complicated, and the Turks are even involved. If this matter is not handled properly, it will lead to a catastrophe!"

Wang Mang nodded: "Yes, my lord, what should we do now?"

Di Renjie pondered: "I'm afraid Jing Yang and I are going to visit Turkic."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was stunned.

Zeng Tai asked in surprise: "Go to Turkic, what about Chongzhou?"

Hearing Di Renjie's words, Wang Mang glanced at Qiu Jing and became thoughtful.

Di Renjie smiled, and looked at Qiu Jing: "Lord Qiu, you are the former governor of Chongzhou. You are very familiar with the people's livelihood, political affairs, military affairs and city defense here. After I leave, Chongzhou will be entrusted to you temporarily."

Qiu Jing hesitated and said: "My lord, this...a lowly position is a criminal official. I am afraid that I dare not take on this important task without the court's pardon. Otherwise, it will be disadvantageous to my lord."

Di Renjie said with relief: "This pavilion has an imperial decree from the emperor to 'do things cheaply'. Today, this pavilion uses this as a basis to exonerate you from the crime and act as the governor of Chongzhou. The appointment will not be postponed until tomorrow!"

Qiu Jing's lips trembled, his eyes were wet with tears, and he slowly knelt down on the ground: "Thank you, Commander, for your trust. Qiu Jing is so grateful, death is inevitable!"

Di Renjie helped him up: "My lord, please stand up, you have been wronged. As long as the Turkic matter is settled, I will return to Beijing to exonerate you."

Qiu Jing thanked, "Thank you, my lord."

Wang Mang watched this scene, thinking deeply, but did not speak.

Di Renjie's eyes turned to Li Kaigu: "Li Kaigu, you led the army to mutiny, you have violated the military law, you should be beheaded..."

Li Kaigu lowered his head; "I will be convicted at the end."

Qiu Jing and Ru Yan turned pale in shock, and looked at Li Yuanfang, only to see Li Yuanfang, Wang Mang, and Zeng Tai look at each other and smiled.

Di Renjie coughed softly: "But I think you are driven by righteousness, and you have reasons for your feelings, and you have made great contributions to uncovering Wang Xiaojie's rebellion against the party. Therefore, you will be exempted from the death penalty and will stay in the commander-in-chief's residence for a while!"

Li Kaigu knelt on his knees: "Thank you, Marshal!"

Di Renjie nodded: "Tomorrow, after finishing the matter in Chongzhou, Jingyang and I will head to Turkic immediately!"

Wang Mang nodded: "Good!"
